Chapter Nineteen

Cohra remained on the ship with Marion and Mariah while his mate rested and their offspring was ensured to make sure that he was good enough health for them to return to their family's home not far away. He found the aides discovering that his mates body was healing up nicely for a human and that it was a little quicker than what they expected, something that might indicate that her body was starting to change its DNA up some from the times they had sex with one another and giving birth to a child that was made of DNA from both him and her. On top of that, he was pleased to find that Autou, his first child with Marion, to be in really good health and that he would be able to be released to their family's home.

Several hours passed by before the decision came that he could head back home with his mate, daughter, and newborn son from one of the head aides that found Marion to be in good enough health, as well as his son, to head back. He was pleased to hear that they were getting to go home but noticed that his mate was a little unsure at first about the journey since she didn't know if she could make the trek across the tough terrain to make it back to their family's home. Finding her be a little on edge at the idea, Cohra stepped out into a hallway and called for one of the aides over to him. He remained where he stood while he waited for them and glanced from time to time in the room at Mariah looking in on her baby brother while his wife was curled up on her bed. His attention shifted in the direction of where the aide was coming from due to the sound of her voice speaking up to him.

"Yes, Cohra?" She asked, calmly, speaking their native tongue to him. "Is there something wrong?"

"There is an issue that has come up that I want to address." Cohra replied, choosing to speak in the language of his people as a way to keep Marion from finding out what he was saying to the aide in order to have her not be on edge so much. "My mate is still weak and she is unsure if she will be able to make the trip back to our family's home on foot. Is there a way that I could be able to pack her back to our house in my arms with our son with some protection in place to keep those who would want us dead away from us?"

"That has already been arranged, Cohra."

"It has?" He was a little caught off guard from what she said to him as he looked to her. His eyes watched her give a nod of her head before she started to follow that up with him calmly speaking up to him.

"The Elder has already placed in an order that your family would be traveling back under guard by his best soldiers to your home in order to keep any human soldiers from taking the life of your son, daughter, mate or yourself."

"I wasn't aware that he had already made the call to have the order of protection put in place for my family."

"The Elder is very determined to keep your child safe from harm since he is the first of a new breed of yautja and human that will have the best of both worlds and will become the first of a line of stronger warriors that will have an edge on top of our best ones if they are trained right."

He couldn't help but be in awe that the leader would choose to go to these lengths for his family to be safe with him having a child with a human female. It never crossed his mind at all that the being who was the head of the mother ship who had come to help his brothers with the growing number of human soldiers in the area that were out to take her away from him would go to the lengths that he was going at in order to ensure that nothing happened to them at all.

Nodding his head to the aide, he made his way back inside of the room where his mate was while she headed off to get everything in place. Cohra got to Marion's side to find her already wanting to know what was going on from the look on her face. He brought up a hand to try and ease her concerns while he spoke to her, softly, in her native tongue instead of his own.

"Everything has been taken care of, Marion." He said to her, gently.

"What do you mean?" She asked, curiously.

"The Elder has arranged for our family to head back to our home under guard to make sure that nothing happens to us while I am carrying you and our newborn son back to our home in the jungle."

"He went this far for us? Our son must have made an effect on him."

"I would probably say it was more along the lines that he is the first in a line of yautjas to come from us breeding with your species and he doesn't want anything bad to happen to this new species if it can be helped."

"That is understandable and comendable at the same time."

He nodded to her. His eyes looked over his shoulder to find the aides standing at the ready for him to leave the room with her so they could get to work on cleaning the room once they were gone. Nodding to them, Cohra shifted his hands to pick his son from his bed where he had been to lie in his mates arms. He moved his hands down to slip underneath her body and guided her up into a bridal position prior to looking to a wide-eyed Mariah as he spoke to her.

"Let's go home, Mariah."

He watched her give a nod of her head before she headed out with him following her out of the room. His body walked down the hallway as she held their son in her arms while he was carrying her. He noticed soldiers saluting them as they made their way down the pathway before making a turn to where the top of the ramp was located. He stood still at seeing soldiers already prepared and armed to do what was necessary in order to keep them safe on the way there. Moving down the ramp, he couldn't help but smile at the reaction of surprise from his mate in her voice at finding their entourage that was waiting to take them home.
